Abstract

In order to evaluate the effect of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer on yield, nitrogen use efficiency and nitrogen harvest index of perennial and bean plants in different patterns of mixed cropping, an experiment in the form of a split plot in the form of a randomized complete block design with four replications in two crop years (2020-2021) was implemented in the research farm of Khuzestan University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. The main factor includes different amounts of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 75 and 150 kg per hectare of pure nitrogen from the source of urea fertilizer) and the secondary factor includes the patterns of mixed cultivation of broad Vicia faba L and spring flowers in 5 levels: 1- pure cultivation of spring flowers (8 rows in per plot), 2- planting 75% Calendula officinalis L + 25% broad Vicia faba L. (6 rows of Calendula officinalis L and 2 rows of broad Vicia faba L.), 3- planting 50% Calendula officinalis L + 50% broad Vicia faba L. (4 rows of Calendula officinalis L and 4 rows of broad Vicia faba L.)), 4- the cultivation of 25% of marigolds + 75% of broad Vicia faba L. (2 rows of marigolds and 6 rows of broad Vicia faba L.) and 5- pure cultivation of broad Vicia faba L. (8 rows per plot) were considered. The results showed that the effect of using different amounts of nitrogen fertilizer on yield, nitrogen use efficiency and nitrogen harvesting index of perennial and bean plants was significant. In most of the analyzed traits, the treatment of 50% of broad Vicia faba L. and 50% of marigold at 75 kg/ha of nitrogen was superior to the other treatments.
